FOREIGN ORDERS: I will only ship to other countries that offer adequate amounts of insurance coverage to be purchased. This would include Canada, Australia, United Kingdom and most of Western Europe. Shipping to other countries can be quite expensive ($25-$50 or more) as there is no “ground” rate. Insurance is often available only on more expensive services. The actual shipping charges including insurance will be charged for purchases outside the USA.

RETURNS: I want you to be happy with your purchase. Unlike most other sellers, you can return any books purchased from me – including CGC/PGX graded books – within seven days of receipt. Items must be returned in the same condition as sent and return shipping charges are the responsibility of the buyer. I package carefully and insure items for what they are worth – if returning something please do the same.

response: I strive for 5 star service. If for any reason you don’t feel you can leave 5 star response please contact me before leaving response and let me know what could be done better.

THE INFORMATION ABOVE has everything you need to order. Now for some observations and musings of my own. You might find it interest reading – but if you skip you won’t miss anything of importance relating to the item for sale.

GRADING: What is up with so many sellers saying “I’m not a professional grader…” You look at their response and some have sold 100’s of comics and have 100’s more for sale but they don’t know how to grade? Be accountable, take a stand. For the record – and while grading is subjective – I know how to grade and if I graded it I stand behind it.

PICTURES: Why are buyers sometimes paying more for raw key issues than they could purchase the same book already professionally graded? Here’s the scenario. The seller lists a key issue in “High Grade”. They are not a professional grader of course but it’s a beautiful book and they have included a number of photos for buyers to look at and “judge for yourself”. The problems here are: 1) “high grade” is generally accepted as VF- (7.5) or better and 2) Beautiful, lovely, excellent and great are adjectives, not grades so mean nothing and 3) You cannot – as CGC notes in their forums on grading – grade a book from pictures. Many defects do not show up in pictures. Yet the hope of getting a raw 9.4 Conan 1 for the 9.0 slabbed price drives certain buyers to pay the 9.0 price for a raw book that is actually no nicer than a CCG or PGX graded 8.0. Wise up folks. As Meatloaf famously sang – “There ain’t no Coupe de Ville hiding in the bottom of a Cracker Jack Box.” If it was 9.4 they’d sell it as such.

RETURNS: I save my most important observation for last. WHY does ANYONE purchase ANYTHING – but especially collectibles – from a seller that lists “all sales are final”? Would you shop at Target if that was their policy? No – you’d go to Wal-Mart instead. “No returns” reveals a deplorable lack of integrity by a seller. They don’t care about you – they just want your money and if you think it’s over graded or not what you expected they don’t want to hear about it. Golly – they told you they weren’t professional graders and they posted up pictures – what more do you want? While Buyer Protection offers an opportunity to eventually resolve such disputes, do you really want to have to wait a month, argue your case and hope it’s settled to your satisfaction? Sales should final when the buyer has had a reasonable period of timeto inspect the items purchases and is satisfied. Buyers would be smart to avoid sellers with a policy of no returns.
